Frederick County - Alcoholic Beverages - Municipal Golf Course License
This Maryland bill updates the rules for issuing alcohol licenses at the City of Frederick's municipal golf course. It allows the county's licensing board to grant a beer, wine, and liquor license directly to a city official chosen by the mayor, rather than only to the golf course manager. The law also permits the license to be transferred to a new official if the city requests it and clarifies that the license holder can sell alcohol for on-site consumption during standard hours. An annual fee of $600 is set for this specific license, and the changes take effect on July 1, 2024.
